Seattle Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki has matched Lou Gehrig's record with his eighth season of at least 200 hits and 100 runs.
Suzuki scored his 100th run of the season in the third inning Friday night against Oakland on Raul Ibanez's RBI single. Suzuki, who has 209 hits, achieved the 200-hit, 100-run mark for the eighth consecutive season.
Gehrig is the only other player in baseball history to have eight seasons reaching those benchmarks. Gehrig reached the marks in 1927-28, 1930-32, 1934 and 1936-37.
